How can residents in the UAE pay Zakat during Ramadan 2026 using the new National Zakat Platform?

With the launch of the UAE’s National Zakat Platform, donors can now calculate and pay their Zakat through a unified official gateway that connects contributors with verified beneficiaries and approved campaigns; users first determine their zakatable wealth (assets minus liabilities above the Nisab threshold), apply the standard 2.5% rate, then select supported categories such as students, orphans, people of determination, indebted individuals and low-income families, and complete payment digitally using bank cards, transfers, Apple Pay or Google Pay, while the platform ensures Shariah compliance, eligibility checks and transparent fund tracking — do you think a centralised digital Zakat system improves trust and impact, or do you still prefer giving directly to charities or individuals?
